The world has moved on...

Ah, of course. It won't hit me until the teams walk out I don't think. If we win it, well, I don't know what my reaction is going to be. Will it be the end of the beginning; or the beginning of the end. Certainly the end of a chapter - even if it has been 57 years in the drafting.

Not been the gf for a few years I seem to remember there being marquee beer tents outside hare these still put up on gf day?

This thread is like a reunion....

When will SteCoops, ILDA, MJF, Neil Ashurst pop up?

Maybe even Wolfette and LFW....

I am not sure I will hit the heights of emotion that swept over me at the end of the first CC win but we shall wait and see.

PS Adidas are cool if you wear the right type. Hugo Boss? Not unless you are 65 years old surely?

As long as Ajay doesn't turn-up we'll be ok.

I thought of him on Saturday when Pav was belting out those tunes.

Was it a prison disco?

Happy days are here again.

I'm pretty much at the Leeds end of the ground so we'd better win.

Passed around like a bag of toffees.

GMP Message for fans

No drinking within view of the pitch or on the corner near the shops.

They've really clamped down on the no drinking on the streets over the last year/eighteen months. They may be lapse in enforcing this on Saturday but they may not so expect your cans to be binned if this is what you were planning.

For a good day out, what I've done for the past couple of years is go to the beer and food festival which is held at the deansgate town centre.

get there around 1ish, some good german beers, scrumpy and decent foods from various parts of the world.

4ish jump on the metro link to salford quays, a couple of bars around there, then 5 minute walk up to the ground.

get in the ground around 5:45 a couple on the ground soak up the atmosphere.

Enjoy the day guys.

Last years final was the first where they strictly enforced the rules. I have been to every final, 7 years being of a reasonable age to drink, and previously drank a can or too every year. Grown up slightly now and tend to stick to pubs in town.

Didn't spot a single person drinking in the area you describe and police officers were confiscating cans from those dim enough to buy them, literally at the doors of the off licences and newsagent.

Shame really, used to be good fun and never known any trouble.

Ah right, didnt see that last year as i was a little late and realising that i was at the wrong end of the ground so got a little jog on.

Shame that, used to be a good atmosphere down there.

Not sure about drinking plans but clothes wise could be.

Fjallraven or Berghaus coat
Hugo Boss polo (Green label)
Zara dark navy jeans
Adidas spezials
